    Summary

    With a gurgled scream he's tossed back into the ocean. The waters rush to embrace their stolen child, but now, instead of their enclosure being a comfort, it's suffocating.

    He thrashes, desperate, trying to swim but... but he can't.

    Panic and fear washes over him as he slowly starts to sink to the bottom of the ocean floor, a trail of blood flowing from the spots his fins were supposed to be.

    He's a shark mer. He needs his fins to swim, but... but they're gone. Taken. Stolen. Sawed away by those monsters. His fins... are gone.

    Dick lets out a terrified shrill as he sinks down, down, down.... drowning.

    For years he's been told to stay clear of the monsters above the ocean. Been told how there were humans that wouldn't hesitate to tear his fins off his body. But never in his life had he expected for it to actually happen to him. Now Dick's drowning, unable to move, defenseless, and... No.

    No, no, no, no—

    There's a something big swimming right toward him.

    (OR Bruce Wayne finds a dying, de-finned shark mer and he does what anyone sensible would do: he takes him in and looks after him, all the while wondering if 26 is a bit too young to adopt.)

    Summary

    Wild has been acting off ever since the chain approached the ruins of Deya Village. There's just something that isn't right about this place.

And through their shared surveillance over Wild, they realize that they aren't such different people either - they're both afraid.

    Summary

    Sky never cried. Never yelled. Never snapped. He was calm, polite—eerily steady. The others thought he was just emotionally controlled. But Sky wasn’t like them. He was the first. From a time before evolution trimmed instincts and stilled the body. His ears still moved with every feeling—twitching, perking, drooping—and no one noticed. Not until one night, when his ears sagged low and silent, and the Chain finally realized: he hadn’t been hiding his emotions. They just hadn’t known how to read them.

    Or: Sky's ears are severely outdated in the Chains opinion.

    Summary

    Donnie’s been quiet for a moment now, which usually meant he wasn't going to speak unless prompted, but he seems weirdly focused, eyes narrowed.

    “Sorry about this, man,” he says suddenly, voice a little hushed.

    Raph supposes he can appreciate that. He just wishes it meant something more.

    “Hey, Donnie?” He manages, finally. “Do you think I’m dumb?”

    or: Donnie and Raph have a chat about school (and a few other things)

    Summary

    (Set in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants Unleashed)

    Basically just the Mikey going feral scene but VERY revamped and angsty.

    Did I do a ton of research on turtle instincts? yes. Did I ignore all of it for angst and plot? also yes.

    Summary

    The labor was longer than he had expected. At first Shadow had wondered if this was something to do with him, but he was assured by Amy and Tails (who played midwife and doctor for him given his distaste of hospitals) that some births are simply longer than others. He had to hope they were right, especially when they were assuring him he was doing a great job. Those words didn’t quite reach him until a pair of lips kissed the base of his ear and whispered, “You can do this, Shads. You’re incredible.”

    Sonic, of course, had no medical knowledge to speak of like his brother and dear friend. However, he was there for every step...

    He cut the umbilical cord and passed her over to Shadow for them to admire together.
    After all, this is their daughter.”

    Or, 7 milestones Shadow and Sonic experienced with their first child and 1 she experienced herself.

    Summary

    He was designed to be a weapon. The Ultimate Lifeform. Only one person in his life saw him—named him—as Shadow the Hedgehog. Maria Robotnik: his only friend on the outer-space laboratory that was all she and him ever knew. Every day, Shadow bore witness to her naked love for a green-blue planet far below. The planet and its people for whom he was made.

    How do you move on from mourning someone you love? And what if being with them—one last time—meant fighting the demons you had finally cast away before?

    While Sonic reckons with an inane surprise party in his honour, Shadow looks into space-time anomalies wracking the Space Colony ARK. His birthplace. Maria's hospice. Where she died for him to live.

    Summary

    At this point in his life, Silver was well adjusted to the ever-changing ways of the future. He full-heartedly believed in the butterfly effect after his experience with Mephiles, so with his constant meddling in past affairs, he expected there to always be something different when he returned to his timeline.

    His own memories would alter with each shift of the future, but with careful journaling and open communication with Blaze, he learned to navigate the confusing order of events and understand what was relevant and irrelevant to his life.

    But, interestingly enough, no matter what occurred, whether it be past or present, he could never remember his childhood. It was a blank chapter in his life he desperately wanted to fill. No one around him had any answers to help either.

    His whole past was a complete mystery.

    Until today.

    Summary

    Sky turned around to observe their surroundings. Immediately, a rush of pure joy and disbelief struck him.

    It had been over six months since the last time they had arrived at Sky’s home. He had found himself missing the lack of rain and the open endless sky that encased the entirety of Skyloft. Up there, the moon and sun were so close he could almost touch them. On the surface, however, it was the opposite. He could barely even see the moon on most nights.

    But now that he was back here, all the waiting had been worth it.

    OR

    The Chain arrive at Skyloft just in time for the most important celebration there.
